Streets of Hope

Aspasia took the tablet from Aidan and carefully scanned the image of the captives, frowning thoughtfully. Her ears perked up slightly as she recalled something. "When we were having Azazel get measured for his suit, the bargain was that we needed to figure out whose suit belonged to who. One w...

With the continuation of the ceremonies, the threat was almost put on the back burner in Meris's mind until Kay appeared and addressed the crowd. Whatever the news was, the fact the Fae Hound stated that only a select few from Eirean's court needed to be in the sunroom piqued her curiosity. Did it h...

With the offer of eldritch emancipation postponed until possibly later, Meris lightly placed her hand on Nereus' hand and sat with him for the next half hour, listening and applauding with the series of declarations. Seeing his timid nature, she understood that he felt vulnerable without the bombast...

Aspasia smiled back, elated at the future possibilities of finding her roots. "I hope that can eventually come true for all of us," she responded. With the initial applause, it seemed like the Nexus' part to play in the festivities were done, but there was obviously another surprise to hap...

Meris was about to respond to his speculation about the jiangshi, but that was halted by the partial opening of the double doors and the emergence of Hengist, Scatha, Titania, and Oberon into the Great Hall. She had already met with the Queen and King, but the Elder Tree's dryad and the Green Knight...

Alastriona grimaced slightly. "I'm aware of who Old Jack is and how much he's suffered over the years, but not to the extent you're talking about. I really hope it doesn't come down to killing him..." she said, resisting her predecessor's memories from welling up to the forefront. Her eyes...

The dryad considered him as he undid his tie and removed his shoes and then closed her eyes as she focused on her Tree back at Holden Hall. "I can definitely sense each of the leaves and even the smallest of its branches. I've been urging the roots to grow and reach as quickly as possible, sinc...
